Politics: June 2008 Archives
GLAAD is freaked out about nothing again, this time a single statement in a recent episode of Morgan Spurlock's FX series "30 Days." They've released this press release urging FX to correct, counter, or modify a statement made by some Christian conservative douchebag on the show and urging GLAAD Faans to write in and do the same.
The story has been picked up by most of the big gay blogs, with no one bothering to acknowledge that Spurlock and "30 Days" have already proven themselves to be dedicated friends of teh gays who deserve the benefit of the doubt. I haven't seen the whole episode yet, but you can tell from the way they are cutting between the gay couple featured on last night's episode, taking loving and responsible care of their children, and that crazy conservative dipstick spouting nonsense, whose side they are on.
As for that ogress crying at the end of the clip about how her "femininity" was undervalued by her gay parents, well she obviously just needs to crawl back under her bridge and get over it. I repeat: GLAAD SUUCKS.
UPDATE: Dan Savage has seen the episode and concurs with GLAAD on this one. So I'm probably wrong about how deftly the issue is handled by 30 Days. But GLAAD still sucks.
Not sure if this stuff is already overexposed, but this is an audio recording of some disc jockeys from Orlando prank calling a "Mr. Burgess" from Grenville, MS and antagonizing him about having a "Gay Day" in his town. Mr. Burgess responds with a blistering torrent of "F" bombs.
I can't help it: I laughed. But then I have a weakness for prank calls. For the record, as these DJs have repeatedly harassed Mr. Burgess I am inclined to forgive him his "F" and even his "N" bombs.

They are selling these Barack Obama sock monkeys here, although they are currently out of stock.
This is my response: :-O

Yay, the McCain Girls are back! And they are voting like they've never voted before...
The Putin Girls are sick and tired of their boyfriends, drunk on the couch and watching "Powers Austin." They want a real man...a man like Putin!
I always wondered why Russians were so susceptible to Putin's strong-arm brand of charisma, and thanks to this video--which may be direct-from-the-Kremlin pro-Putin PR--I now know: It's cuz they're a bunch of stupid, mercenary whores!
